Bio

I lead an AI applications team at a small UK based technology consultancy. My work focuses on aligning AI adoption with organisational values, security constraints, and long-term resilience. I’ve developed internal governance frameworks, chaired strategy councils, and delivered tools using LLMs, RAG systems, and agentic workflows. Earlier in my career, I worked in health analytics during the pandemic and completed a PhD in physics.

Recently, I’ve become increasingly focused on the risks and governance challenges posed by frontier AI systems. I’m currently exploring ways to contribute more directly to AI safety; including roles in strategy, technical policy, or state capability-building.

How others can help me

I'm looking for opportunities to contribute to AI safety through roles in strategy, governance, or technical policy; especially in public sector or research settings. I’d welcome connections, feedback on my writing, or collaboration ideas.

How I can help others

Reach out if you have questions about AI governance, public sector adoption, technical deployment of LLMs or agentic systems, or building internal AI strategies. I'm happy to share insights from applied work in the public sector, strategy development, and organisational change.
